This song is not in a battle


A droning pop song with terrible singing that I wrote for my girlfriend

What I learned:
Don't sing when you have strep throat.

Cheers.

LYRICS:
How do you feel?
How do you feel today?
How do you feel, today?
Do you feel perfect?
Do you feel sad today?
How do you feel today?

I wanna know cause I care
I wanna know cause I need
To know

I wish you’d know me
I wish I’d know you too
I wish you’d tell me today
Does it feel ugly?
Does it feel possible?
How does it feel today?

I wanna know cause I care
I wanna know cause I need to know

You think I don’t care
I don’t have empathy
But you mean everything to me
Do you feel passive?
Do you feel obstacles?
How do you feel today?

I wanna know cause I care
I wanna know cause I need to know

You live in a bottle
 beautiful bottle of glass
But you put the lid on
Through which nothing can pass
I wish you’d tell me
I wish you’d need to share
I wish everything for you

I wanna know cause I care
I wanna know cause I need to know
I wanna know cause I need you
I wanna know cause I need to feel

Cool
Dude, don't be so hard on yourself. Droning is not an adjective I would use to describe it.  Melodic and easy to listen too.  Not bad at all.  It's a bid mod-80s but in a good way.  Keep it up. 
I like the backup vocals - that could have been kitch but you pulled it off and didn't over do it. 
I like the ending too.  Cheers.

This is good, very easy to listen to.  The only critiques on this is imho you might think of changing the drum patterns some, maybe a different pattern for the chorus and a few fills here and there just for fun.

 As far as your vocals go I like em!  They are very easy to listen to.  There are a lot of great songs that have no more in them than what you have here.

 The mix is pretty good. I'm not real fond of the way the lead vocals are panned wide, but that is just me, not really anything bad.

  overall good job.

Reminds me of Red House Painters. (Specially those spaced vocals)

Just to add to critics:
Some notes sound flat on the singing, could always pitch em in possibly. Vocals sound like they need to be louder (not in the mix) but into the microphone :P. Though I'm sure confidence is a good remedy for both :P.

Like the synth and the end. Shame it didn't naturally fade out where as cut abruptly.
